Why Was This Man Smiling At AUTOMATICA 2014?
At this AUTOMATICA the hype theme was definitely collaborative robotics -- our robots can work alongside your human workers safely.
Cable Management Systems Do the Robot
Multi-axis, three-dimensional cable carriers for palletizing.
USB 3.0 Steps Up To The Plate
Upgrading existing systems or basing new designs on plug-and-play USB3 Vision-compliant video interfaces, designers can produce a winning combination of performance, ease-of-use, and cost advantages.
The Emergence and Implications of Nanomanufacturing
Obviously, nanomanufacturing will require new kinds of skills that are needed for these high-tech manufacturing jobs, which require specialized education, such as powder processing and metallurgy extraction.
The Rubik and the Robot
A multi-talented control and automation team applies its mechanical, electrical, and software engineering chops to celebrate-and solve-a timeless puzzle.
National Robotics Week Was A Hit!
The fifth annual National Robotics Week was held April 5-13. Established by Congress in 2010 to raise awareness about robots and their important role in shaping the future of education, industry and the U.S. economy,
Industrial Robotics Market is Expected to Reach $41.17 Billion, Globally, by 2020
Rapid growth in automation demands, coupled with reduction of duties on refurbished goods in Asia Pacific region has fueled the growth of this market.
Next Generation Smart Miniature Wi-Fi Modules Accelerate IoT and M2M
Low-power, low-cost Wi-Fi modules enable nearly any device to connect with smart phones, tablets and cloud-based applications across The Internet of Things (IoT) and Machine-to-Machine (M2M).
Added Value From An Ejector With Integrated Controls?
Air-driven ejectors are gaining pace as the vacuum source for suction cup handling equipment on robots and special purpose machines (ex: case/carton erectors, de-stackers, unloading equipment, etc.)
Make It Smart; Make It Here!
Make it smart and make it here! These are the rallying words heard around the world regarding keeping jobs in-country and manufacturing smarter, more efficiently, and less costly.
Inductive Linear Sensors
Todays applications require their sensors feedback in much quicker intervals. The faster the response, the faster the production or through put of work, which results in a low cost per unit or operation.
Bionic Kangaroo
With the artificial kangaroo, Festo also shows how pneumatic and electric drive technology are combined in a highly dynamic system.
What is Rapid Prototyping?
Whether a robot is needed to prototype a part or a robot is the object being prototyped, Rapid Prototyping is the future.
Design With Touchless Rotary Sensors
Touchless rotary sensors are position sensors that use a position marker attached to an applications rotating part plus a sensor to measure the markers angle.
Why I Automate: Engineered Machined Products, Inc.
Like any small company introducing change into their operations, some employees feared that automation may take their jobs. But at EMP, the opposite was true. "Weve seen jobs grow, and thats very important; not only for this community, but for the State of Michigan,"
